My new sign for Toledo Art Walk

 

Saturday, Sunday and Monday 10-5 daily.

I will be showing as a guest artist, at Becky Miller's Studio, on first street.

I will be showing my new series of rustic fern sketches. The green ones are salvaged from an old Coleman camp stove that I rescued from an old barn. The green and rusty metal are very pretty to me. It takes "time" to get this kind of character. It is not somthing you can reproduce or rush.

 

 

 

 

And of course a menagerie of rustic bird sculptures, along with some other creatures.

 

 

 

 

 

See you'll this weekend at Toledo Art Walk

Summit Festival only comes once a year.

And it came fast this year! Summer is flying by fast than I can believe. So are the years, 12 years (or is it 13?)

The Summit Festival was the first event I ever showed at. My daughter was just starting school, and now she is a high school graduate, and off to college.


That first year my Cousin, Aunt and I all shared a booth! Now I barely have room for all my own Art in the space.

 

Come and visit the Little town of Summit, Saturday the 18th of August.

We will all be there with bells on!

 

My new Mushroom Bench will not make it to Summit, due to lack of space, in the booth and the Pickup. It will debut at the Toledo Art Walk, Labor day weekend in Toledo. With more cool stuff to come. I am a guest artist this year at Becky Miller's studio. Keep,your eyes out for another post with more details.

This Beauty is right around the corner from my shop.

New table covers - Rust Dyeing

I decide last week to wrap up some rust dying bundles. I plan on using the yardage for new table covers at my Summer shows. I think I used about 8 yards, that should cover it.

Some of my rusty supplies.
 

 

Rusty piped wrapped, ready for the reveal.


Lovely, looks like trees to me.
